Page Links

I have a site I’m developing and I recently scrapped my development server, reinstalled, and have put my main site I’m working on back on.

When I was working on the site previosly it was https://10.250.4.5/hisra/

and my permalinks were/are custom: /%category%/%postname%/

I moved the site to the root directory it is just 10.250.4.5. None of my pages work unless I set the permalink structure back to default. Here is my .htaccess:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Thoughts? This is a Ubuntu 12.04 server and www-data owns everything /var/www.

Thank you in advance.

PS – My database was also updated so that the new structure is in place. The site comes up. I can log in, but can’t see any pages unless permalinks are set to default.
